cellent s-donors. They readily form complexes with transition metals. Since 1990s, the use of NHCs as ligands has lead to significant advancements in the area of Pd-catalyzed carbon–carbon bond-forming reactions, Ru-catalyzed olefin metathesis, and Rh-catalyzed hydrosilylations. NHCs have also attracted significant attention as organocatalysts. Several reactions have been catalyzed by NHCs, for...
